How to improve presence of mind ?

in life •  7 years ago 

In an interview,  the candidate was asked very first question. 

How can you lift an elephant with one hand ?

The candidate thought for a moment and answered, " You will never find an elephant with one hand

 Kudos….!     The Interviewer admires the  “Presence of mind”.      

Result : Candidate was Selected. 

So, what do we need to develop a good presence of mind ?

Listen with attention & observe

 You need to know what other people are saying; they are not just sharing their opinion, but valuable information too, which is very essential for you to do something.  While someone is doing something and you need to be able to understand or replicate that, it is very significant that you observe them carefully. 

 

 Don't carry emotional baggage 


 let go of perfectionism
